Even if they did it'd be pointless; $625 is ~£400 or €480. And there is no way in hell you're going to get that spec machine for either of those amounts; rough guesstimate for that spec in Ireland is €630 - WELL over the $800 mark. And that's using really cheap e-tailers (sans eGay) and not counting the various shipping costs, which should bring the whole thing nicely past $850 and up toward $900 if you have a bad day with stock levels and specials. I doubt its THAT much better over there in Blighty.

Summary: A pointless article - it just doesn't apply this side of the Pond.

... But I am interested by the E5200 remarks. It rather hilariously makes a certain recent overclocking article here on Toms look just a little bit ridiculous (an article which claims to OC an E7300 to 4GHz and fails, OCing it to 3.8GHz while claiming the E5200 is a poor part) How far is the E5200 OCd here? 4GHz stable, 4.3GHz possible...

However, I noticed the bit about the FSB issues. Funny coincidence, I had issues a while back too, and while a BIOS update allowed me to push it higher the mobo was nowhere near 400MHz and used a lot of juice to keep it stable. Many others seem to have difficulty getting the E5200 stable when the FSB pushes past 400MHz as well, even on FSB1600-rated boards. Hmm...
